John enjoyed celebrating his birthday with his friends in the Salem Seniors' group. We would pick up a cake for him at the IGA, decorated according to his specifications, and send home any extra with him. He enjoyed his food, especially desserts and snacks.He was one of our domino champions, enjoying the weekly competition.Sincerest Sympathy and Condolences,

When i think about John I go back to putting up hay. John running around he wagon yelling at his dad about the hay bales he is running over. Dad could not hear good n driving was worst. Then taking them to town dressed up to shop n John would mumble under his breath about things. Special guy will be missed.
